An important PSA for people who are active on #Bluesky and who, upon hearing that the ICE account was officially verified, are saying: "I will just block it."
Blocking on Bluesky is NOT PRIVATE: it's very easy to see who is blocking any account by visiting sites that list that information.
I took a screenshot from https://clearsky.app, listing all the accounts that are blocking ICE (I pixelated avatars and usernames for privacy purposes).
The safest bet is to mute (that info is private) 😫

#ICE recruitment used #AI tools to sort applicants based on experience with law enforcement but included everyone who used the word "officer" in their application as "law enforcement officers"... who didn't require training.
You could have listed “administrative officer” at an ad agency & they’d not train you.

People making sure to say that Madura was not a good guy are literally doing Trump's work for him. Like, heavy lifting work.
It's like the fuckfaced liberals who can't get over that not all of the people ICE kidnaps are "criminals".
YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT.
If Imperial United States can invade anyone after declaring the leader is a "bad person", then the only thing preventing US Emperors from invading other States is spending a couple weeks being like "I heard that dude wasn't good".

Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. “Big tech has made their choice.”

Today's... "what?!" Wikipedia post:
> In 2007, Steenburgen underwent minor surgery on her arm, which required a general anaesthetic; shortly thereafter, she began experiencing "music (...) playing in her head day and night". She subsequently took music lessons so that she could write down what she was hearing, and by 2013 had almost 50 songwriting credits.

#DOJ attorneys haven’t elaborated on how doing so might hamper the portrayal #Trump seeks to present to the public. But overturning policies encompassing #diversity, #equity & #inclusion have become a hallmark of his second admin, starting with his very first week back in the White House.

Total BS
#Trump admin says #SignLanguage services 'intrude' on Trump's ability to control his #image
The Trump admin is arguing that requiring real-time #ASL interpretation of events like White House press briefings “would severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public,” part of a lawsuit seeking to require the White House to provide the services.
